DUES, CONFERENCES, EDUCATION LINE 10115-52050 $ 400 Requested
Current and new ZBA members benefit from several educational opportunities throughout the
fiscal year. Newly enacted State Legislation through Public Act 23-173 now requires that each
member of the ZBA and other Land Use Commissions complete four hours of training under the
guidelines established by the State Office of Policy and Management. The State of Connecticut
offers a training seminar specifically targeted to ZBA members that is held annually in the
spring. The CT Association of Zoning Enforcement Officers (CAZEO) hosts monthly meetings that
address relevant topics and current issues in zoning practice. The annual CT Bar Association
conference also typically includes sessions geared toward zoning practice and current legal
matters. Access to these training opportunities helps ZBA members at all states of their service
to the Town to maintain an understanding of relevant zoning issues. $400 is requested in FY25.
OFFICE SUPPLIES LINE 10115-53010 $50 Requested
The ZBA historically maintains $50 in this line to pay for items that are not supplied by the
Planning Department or Finance Office. Board member name plates and updated Zoning
Regulation binders are funded through this line.
